Solve for z 4/z = 12/5 what is z

Mathematics
1 answer:
Verdich [7]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

5/3      = z

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use proportions to figure this out.

Imma solve this as I work through it.

So

4/z is equal to 12/5. So you can do something called the butterfly method (I have never used this before, but it works tho) and the method involves only multiplication and division.

Lemme clean this up for ya

The butterfly method involves multiplying in a cross format on both sides, so the

4                       12

__        =      ______

z                          5

becomes 4 times 5, and z times 12.

4 times 5 is 20, and z times 12 is 12z

so you now have 20 = 12z

Lets simplify the equation by dividing by 4s

20 divided by 4 is 5 and 12z divided by 4 is 3z

so

5 = 3z

You can divide again

by dividing both sides

by

3

to get the unit rate of z.

It will be a fraction though

and it won't look pretty

but here it is:

5

__  = z

3

So

It is

5/3

Hope this helps

and hope you get a laugh out of this

The figure is the net for a rectangular prism.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

SA=544\ cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of a rectangular prism is equal to the area of its six rectangular faces

using the net

The surface area is equal to

SA=2[(16)(6)]+2[(16)(8)]+2[(8)(6)]

SA=192+256+96

SA=544\ cm^2

Determine which of the following statements is NOT correct. 00:00 The equation x + 1.793 = 2.42 can be rewritten as x-1.793 = 2.
Mademuasel [1]

• x+1.793= 2.42

x-1.793= 2.42-1.793 FALSE

• 5.25x = 15.75

Solve for x, by dividing both sides of the equation by 5.25

x = 15.75/5.25

x = 3 TRUE

• The equation x = 2.4 *11.62 can be rewritten as x = 11.62 * 2.4. TRUE

• The solution to the equation x + 9.43 = 16.09 is x = 6.66.​

x+9.43 = 16.09

Subtract 9.43 from both sides of the euqation:

x-9.43+9.43= 16.09-9.43

x = 6.66 TRUE

The dimensions of a triangular prism are shown below what is the volume of the prism in cubic feet
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

B. 192.5 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a triangle prism, multiply the base, height, and length together, and then divide it by 2 (or multiply that by 0.5).

(5 * 7 * 11)/2

Multiply 5 by 7 to get 35.

(35 * 11)/2

Multiply 35 by 11 to get 385.

385/2

192.5 ft³ is the volume of this triangluar prism.
